I'd say Tywin's downfall was a combination of poison, the shits, and a crossbow quarrel. Up until that, he was doing o.k.
Tywin's downfall was being a shitty and hypocritical father. He was a shitty father to all 3 of his children, especially Tyrion. Tywin's failing as a father will lead to the downfall of his house.
Nothing would make me happier for Tywin's legacy if Tyrion's daughter Lanna became the heir to Casterly Rock, after forcibly being turned into a whore by Tywin. Won't happen on the show, but it's a possibility in the books.

I'm pretty sure it was earlier in this thread but several of us were discussing that Varys possibly knows and could provide confirmation. He was working for the Targaryns at the time and finding out who seduced the honorable Ned Stark would be a mystery worth solving.
Yeah, it's really hard for me to imagine that Varys in both the show and books didn't figure it out. Same with Tywin who should have seen through that. Varys might let Jon slide since in the books at worse he would be another distraction for Robert and the Lannisters and in the show it's because he actually wants what's good for the realm.

Actually, I think book Varys would have seen Jon as a threat to fAegon.

Yeah, but I think he knows Ned isn't going to say shite to him and that he'd take the black. Once Jon took the black, he was of no more concern to Varys as Aemon was.

I'm not buying that he knew. But, if he did know and didn't do anything because Jon was going to and then did take the black, I'd love to have seen his face when he found out Jon got out of his vows because his watch ended when he died and was brought back by magic.
I can see the thought bubble now: "I absolutely fricking HATE magic".

Can't wait until Bran meets Jon
Jon "So I have to marry Daenerys"
Bran "LOL Nasty"
Jon "What?"
Bran "Oh nothing"
Jon "So I have to marry Daenerys"
Bran "LOL Nasty"
Jon "What?"
Bran "Oh nothing"

Yeah, given the fact that a person's aunt possesses the same exact genes as one (or both, in Alabama) of that person's parents, it is actually pretty gross.
So, in this case, it would be like Jon marrying Rhaegar. Wow, that's hot.
I bet you folks thought it was more like cousins, huh?

It's definitely more gross to Jon to marry Dany than it is Sansa, Roll Tide!

I mean the fact that you grew up as siblings.... I think that would be more difficult to separate.
Plus there's genetic sexual attraction that happens to long lost family members, but doesn't really occur with people who grew up together. They could be attracted to one another and not really know why, with this being the reason.

Okay, listen. We'll just hope they don't tell him who he is and we can still root for it.
Posted on 8/3/17 at 7:11 pm to blueboy
Bran will creepily tell him.

I don't get the people complaining that Dany should have won already just because she has a vastly superior force. That's like saying the US should have won the War on Terror 15 years ago. Technically they could have but for PR reasons they have to win while minimizing harm to innocents. Dany has the exact same problem and she's said as much. She wants to rule but she doesn't want people thinking she's her father. Ruling requires more than just conquering and she wants the people to love her, not fear her.
Does it really matter with CNN reporting non-stop that Dany colluded with Russia to get the throne?
Posted on 8/3/17 at 7:28 pm to PsychTiger
Bad analogy. If anything, she colluded with the Mongols (Golden Horde maybe). And some ancient Greeks or maybe Janissaries. And she's about to collude with Robert the Bruce big time.

Is there really anyone else for Jon to marry besides Dany, Sansa, or Arya at this point?? Yara prefers bad poosay and Cersei is oldddddd and batshit crazy.

Meera Reed
EDIT: Granted there is the Crackpot theory with that in Meera and Jon were twins and Howland took Meera.

I thought we decided they were twins
Posted on 8/3/17 at 7:40 pm to OMLandshark
I thought she wanted Bran .
Posted on 8/3/17 at 7:41 pm to ladytiger118
Bran wants her. Don't think it's reciprocated
Especially now that he acts like a depressed fish now
